Le Creuset Signature Skillet & Cast Iron Cookbook

The Signature Skillet from Le Creuset is a beautiful kitchen staple. It’s particularly useful for stovetop frying and oven baking. Over time, the matte black interior develops a natural patina that makes searing and frying even easier. Any cooking aficionado is also sure to love ‘The Cast Iron Way to Cook’ book. In it, you’ll find delicious, healthy recipes that you’ll want to try over and over again…and why not? Bon appétit!

Salt & Pepper Mill Set

Any host will appreciate a new Salt & Pepper Mill Set—especially this one. The ceramic grinder is strong enough to crack whole peppercorns and grinding salt. The best part? You can adjust the grind setting just by turning the knob (clockwise for a finer ground, counterclockwise for a coarser ground). Pair the set with Jacobsen Salt Co.’s Peppercorn & Sea Salt, which is an acclaimed brand used by chefs around the world.

Microfleece Throw Blanket

An oversized, super soft Microfleece Throw Blanket is perfect for curling up on the couch and having a movie marathon. It’s also light enough to serve as an extra layer on your bed. No matter how you use it, it’s big enough for two (and certainly cuddle-worthy). The zebra print is one of our favorite patterns, but you can pick and choose from a variety of different styles.

Le Creuset Dutch Oven & Braiser

You can’t go wrong with a classic Le Creuset Dutch Oven, which is perfect for making a batch of soup—or even a cake! This is an ultra-versatile item, which is why it’s considered a classic piece for the kitchen. The Le Creuset Braiser is ideal for breaking down big cuts of meat or tenderizing vegetables. With both of them, heat distributes evenly and slowly, making them perfect for all types of cooking—from roasting to baking.
